I like to see where possible free and open discussion. There are lines and we have mods to deal with this. However these mods have jobs, lives and cannot read every post in real-time or otherwise.
The report facility is there but will take time for someone to deal with. You cannot expect all posts to be read, also then dealt with as quick as what I feel your expectation levels are. It is just not realistic.
I feel often in the modern world many have become a little over sensitive, a little too PC, a little too closed minded in respect to others opposing views of course which they are entitled too the same as anyone else's.
Just because one person thinks it is wrong doesn't make it wrong. Also many opinions are subjective as there isn't a fact in all cases. We are also often never blessed with the full facts about things and often blessed with many incorrect facts about things which skews viewpoints either way. I keep a very open mind for this reason.
If you don't like someone's opinion you can ignore it, not reply and/or block them. This IMHO is not a solid and just reason to over moderate a forum. I want open honest and hard hitting discussions as I feel we often really get down and dirty achieving real results this way. Get it all out there warts and all. As long as it is not personal, or reactive and maintains a balanced line I see no issues.
If you want a nambie pambie forum that is afraid to discuss real issues and support all and any opinion then I don't want this to be it.
